Anorexia is an eating disorder that is becoming more prevalent among women in the
past few decades and is psychologically driven in Western society due to the emphasis put on slender women being the ideal in Western
civilization. Needless to say, if you or a loved one is suffering with this disorder, a qualified physician should treat any cases of
anorexia. However, some of the side effects of anorexia can be hair loss due to the malnutrition the syndrome caused. In this case, it is
vital to carefully follow the advice given in the sections Nutrition, Diet, and Hair Loss, and Natural Hair Remedies.
It is of course recommended in all cases that you
reduce your intake of red meats, fatty foods, and reduce stress, however due to your profession and engrained habits there may be a limit to
how much you can change this part of your lifestyle. There is another factor in Eastern civilizations that may cause a stark difference in
their women not suffering through typical menopausal symptoms here in the West. The consumption of soybeans and soybean products is much
higher in the East. This is significant because soy contains estrogen-like substances and work in the body similarly to estrogen. Therefore
there is not an extreme drop in estrogen levels in women who consume soybean products, thus reducing the symptoms of menopause typically
suffered in the West.
